Cruise to memphis-graceland
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay so I will ask again, we have alot of new members and there may be some refreshed interest, everyone that knows me knows I am a HUGE Elvis fan.
We did this trip two years in a row , 2012 and 2013 and had a blast both Years.
It's a real chance to see some of the history surrounding many of the great Rock & Roll legends.
I am thinking APRIL 24 or MAY 1, 2015 Date to be determined.
We may be going Back to see the "KING", WELL HIS HOME ANYWAY, and HIS CARS, his AIRPLANES, ect., and his airplanes are rumored to being moved from the area so this may be the last time you may get to see them)
A CRUISE to Memphis to Graceland and Beal street.
If you have a fifth gen and want to see what kind of enjoyment full membership has to offer, come join me on this trip. Its a 8-9 hour drive, (530 miles) we leave in the morning after a sit down breakfast meeting and get there by dinner, stay overnight at the Heartbreak Hotel, see Graceland on Saturday morning, Sun Studio tour at noon, Peabody Ducks at the Peabody hotel in the afternoon or the gibson guitar factory tour or the stax records studio tour, dinner at rendezvous rib joint, (World famous), party a little on world famous Beel Street and back to the hotel for some cigars and drinks and laughs about who almost got arrested, (no names, and please remember my law license is only good in the state of Illinois, unless I ask for special permission to represent my overly intoxicated buddies).
For those that dont know how popular Graceland is, Elvis home is the most popular visited home in the world other then the Whitehouse. Just listen to XM or Serius radio Elvis station, people come from all over the world to see this place. They have a radio station that broadcasts on XM and Sirius Radio all day everyday and they always interview people about how far they traveled to see the Kings Home, we will definitely visit this radio station. The Tour can take 3 Hours. With a leave time on Friday at 8:00 a.m. we will get up there by 6:00 or 7:00, with allowing for a few short pit-stops along the way.. AND YES you can wash the bugs off your car behind the Hotel with a hose or go to the hand car wash when you get to town.
Friday Nights dinner will be at a local place, dont worry about driving, they come and pick us up in pink limos, LOL (at least the last two times they did)
Saturday night dinner would be at Redezvous Rib Joint. No need to worry about parking, your babies will be back at the Hotel all parked togethor.
Memphis is the home of R & B and their are some legendary recording studios and attractions in town in addition to Graceland, which we could see Saturday afternoon-evening. i.e Sun Records studio, ect.
Hotel accomodations are right across the street from Elvis home at The Heartbreak Hotel. Rates last year were about 124 .00 for a standard room. I will try and get us a block of rooms next to each other reserved.
The VIP All day Graceland tour pass was $70.00 last year.
If we get 15 people we qualify for group rates on tours and rooms.
again, I will not put this trip TOGETHOR unless I have ten cars committed or more.
